Five best films of 2007

5. Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story- Ive often believed that The Hot Shots series was the last of the good spoof comedies. Easy to believe after all the shit that’s been forced on the movie going public (Date Movie? Are you fucking serious?). Still, this lampoon of musical bio-pics reaches Talladega Nights levels of hilarity.

4. Pirates of the Carribean: At worlds end- Honestly, not my favorite of the trilogy, but a mediocre movie with Jack Sparrow is much better than any movie with Jason Lee. Don’t Believe me? Well I don’t believe they made an Alvin and the Chipmunks movie, so that makes two of us.

3. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street- Tim Burton Directed it. Johnny Depp played the title role. It’s a musical about a barber who slits peoples’ throats so they can be turned into meat pies. I don’t know what the hell your waiting for. Go see it now!

2. Stardust- books based on fantasy novels had begun to suck until this one came along. Its fantasy romance mixed with just a hint of humor. And what other movie this year allows you to witness Robert De Niro as a gay cross dressing sky pirate?


And the best movie of 2007 (to no ones suprise):

1. 300

30 years ago, it became very stylish to talk of the divine Feminine: this ideal that there is a goddess inside all of us that instills peaceful emotions. If that is true, then this movie is proof of the Divine Masculine: That there is an angry, vengeful male God inside all of us that just wants to punch you in the face and laugh about it (also he seems to hate Persians).

And there you have it. The Looking Glass' five greatest films of 2007. Happy new years everyone and remember: try not to get so drunk that you end up walking outside with your penis exposed. The police do not think its as funny as your friends do
